The Transhumanist movement is mostly populated with two kinds of men: those who can't wait for their eternally compliant substitute for a real relationship, and those who can't wait for their intellectual and physical superiors to wipe them off the face of the universe.
So what about me then?
Date: 2010-03-23 01:58 am (UTC)Why would those who are superior to me wish my extinction and why would I wish my own doom? We are getting better, stronger, faster, smarter and one can assume also that we will gain further understanding of those lesser than we are. If we don't now(generally as a rule, there are exceptions) beat and bully those who are less than we are, why would those who are greater do so?
I love the future. I want to experience the future. I dream of a future that is about as close to the Pendorian ideal as you have espoused and believe that is we grow smart, strong, wise and good enough we can get there...
though maybe with out all the BDSm furry stuff...
and that would be the sad part.
